I have a simple Question :
How can i turn an Android Device into a Modern Microphone ? ,
I does no want to Record Audio , i just want :
Speak
Audio is Forwarded to the 3.5 Jack Output(No Input) where a Speaker is Connected for example ,
Thanks .
Edit : Here is the Code i am using , Thanks to everyone who contributed here and Thanks @user1917769 for your working Answer , i have no Any Lag its work fine as a real Mic Device :
import android.media.AudioFormat;
import android.media.AudioManager;
import android.media.AudioRecord;
import android.media.AudioTrack;
import android.media.MediaRecorder;
import android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioSource;
import android.util.Log;
public class TOne extends Thread {
private Thread T1;
private byte audiobuffer[] = new byte[20];
public boolean Okay = true;
public AudioRecord a;
public AudioTrack aud;
private static int[] mSampleRates = new int[] { 8000, 11025, 22050, 44100 };
@Override
public void run() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
//super.run();
int i=AudioRecord.getMinBufferSize(8000 , AudioFormat.CHANNEL_IN_MONO , AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT);
a= findAudioRecord();
if(a.getState() != AudioRecord.STATE_INITIALIZED){
a= findAudioRecord();
}
a.startRecording();
Log.e("Play Audio" , "Start");
aud = new AudioTrack(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,8000,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_OUT_MONO, AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT,AudioTrack.getMinBufferSize(8000,AudioFormat.CHANNEL_OUT_MONO,
AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT),AudioTrack.MODE_STREAM);
if(aud.getState() != AudioTrack.STATE_INITIALIZED){
aud = new AudioTrack(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,8000,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_OUT_MONO, AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT,AudioTrack.getMinBufferSize(8000,AudioFormat.CHANNEL_OUT_MONO,
AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT),AudioTrack.MODE_STREAM);
}
aud.play();
while(Okay){
a.read(audiobuffer,0,audiobuffer.length);
////Log.e("IS_ACTIVE", "YES");
aud.write(audiobuffer,0,audiobuffer.length);
}
}
public AudioRecord findAudioRecord() {
for (int rate : mSampleRates) {
for (short audioFormat : new short[] { AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_8BIT, AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT }) {
for (short channelConfig : new short[] { AudioFormat.CHANNEL_IN_MONO, AudioFormat.CHANNEL_IN_STEREO }) {
try {
Log.d("C.TAG", "Attempting rate " + rate + "Hz, bits: " + audioFormat + ", channel: "
+ channelConfig);
int bufferSize = AudioRecord.getMinBufferSize(rate, AudioFormat.CHANNEL_IN_MONO , AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT);
if (bufferSize != AudioRecord.ERROR_BAD_VALUE) {
// check if we can instantiate and have a success
AudioRecord recorder = new AudioRecord(AudioSource.MIC, 8000, channelConfig, audioFormat, bufferSize);
if (recorder.getState() == AudioRecord.STATE_INITIALIZED)
return recorder;
}
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("C.TAG", rate + "Exception, keep trying.",e);
}
}
}
}
return null;
}
private void LetsPlayThatsAudio() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
But i am thinking to put this into a Service wich implements a Thread so i can Start/Stop easily

for this you will have to first record sound from mobile microphone and then play it on your phone at the same time.for recording work try this in thread 1 and get data in audiobuffer byte array
int i=AudioRecord.getMinBufferSize(8000,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO,AudioFormat.ENCO DING_PCM_16BIT);
AudioRecord a= new AudioRecord(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC,8000,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO,AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT,i);
a.startRecording();
byte audiobuffer[]=new byte[20];
new thread2().start();
while(true)
{
a.read(audiobuffer,0,audiobuffer.length);
}
at the same time for playing that data that will output sound to 3.5 mm jack try this code in thread 2
AudioTrack aud= new AudioTrack(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,8000,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO, AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT,AudioTrack.getMinBufferSize(8000,AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO,
AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT),AudioTrack.MODE_STREAM);
aud.play();
while(true)
{
aud.write(audiobuffer,0,audiobuffer.length);
}
